recordError:(NSError* _Nonnull)error attributes:(NSDictionary* _Nullable)attributes; NewRelic.recordError(error: $Error, map $eventAttributes);
Requirements
Agent version 6.0.0 or higher.
Description
You can use the recordError
API call for crash analysis. Review the captured events to help you understand how often your app is throwing errors and under what conditions. In addition to any custom attributes that you added, the events will also have associated session attributes.
This API takes an instance of an NSError
and an optional NSDictionary
attribute dictionary, then creates a recordHandledException
event. You can view event data both in Insights and in the New Relic Mobile UI, including the Handled exceptions page and the Crash events trail.
For context on how to use this API, see the documentation about sending custom attributes and events to Insights for:
